One of things I like about green teas is that they go really well in creamy, fruity blends.

I tried this at a friend’s house and loved it! The fruit is nice, but the creamy coconut and milk flavours are what got me.

Brews a deep orange colour. I accidentally let 2 tsp leaves steep for over 10 minutes and it got a tiny bit bitter (and on the cusp of being tart from the fruit) but not astringent, which is an excellent sign. I’m going to try this again as an iced pitcher starting with more water and see how it is cold. I really enjoyed it hot, but I imagine it makes a nice iced tea as well.

Flavors: Coconut, Cream, Creamy, Fruity, Green, Malt, Milk, Pleasantly Sour, Tangy, Tree Fruit, Tropical

Preparation

200 °F / 93 °C 8 min or more 2 tsp 14 OZ / 400 ML

Wow I’m surprised they still have it around after all this time. And that it didn’t go stale. Glad you liked it! :)

Profile

Bio

I am a biochem major hoping for a career in research genetics and evolutionary biology. I love science fiction and spend too much of my time reading comic books. I’m a passionate keeper of spiders, cacti, and exotic plants. I eat a vegan, plant-based diet for moral and environmental reasons (I mention this only because it is relevant to which flavoured teas I drink).

I drink mostly flavoured and low caffeine teas/tisanes, but I will try anything twice. As far as pure teas go, I gravitate towards whites, yellows, and jade oolongs. I’m always open for trades and sample sales/exchanges. Message me any time :)

My cupboard is mostly up to date. For a more comprehensive list, see my stash spreadsheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-HjWKR3um-xEnj6HC9vMvKXOAyj_bpW5u_2ixEC20-k/edit?usp=sharing
